For earthbending, the original benders were badgermoles. One day, when I was little, I ran away and hid in a cave. That's where I met them. They were blind just like me, so we understood each other. I was able to learn earthbending. Not just as a martial art, but as an extension of my senses. For them, the original earthbenders, it wasn't just about fighting. It was their way of interacting with the world.

That's amazing, Toph. I learned from the monks, but the original airbenders were the sky bison. [to Appa] Maybe you could give me a lesson sometime, buddy. [Appa growls]

Well, that doesn't help me. The original firebenders were the dragons. And they're extinct.
